Hello, I am now trying to figure out how i can read/write to a file in WinCC with Visual Basic. There are a few tags like FileName that don't seem to be recognised when i compile. In the example project i can see they just write the tag name in the code without a problem but i am not able to get it to work like in the project. My project does differ from the example because the example is in RT Advanced and i am using RT Profesionnal. Does anyone know what i have to do to make it recognise the tag in the code so it compiles and i can test it? |

Hello Creasu, You can use the code in WinCC Professional but there are certain aspects that differ from WinCC Advance to WinCC Professional. For example, access to a variable is done with HMIRuntime.Tags("variable name"). You should do something like this with the variables: dim tag Set tag = HMIRuntime.Tags("variable") tag.Read and to concatenate text with variable value: ts.WriteLine(tag.Value & " text " ..... |
If this Information really helps, you could use the Rate function |

Hi Creasu, have a look in the SIMATIC WinCC Engineering V19 - Programming reference. Regards, Frink |
